Default Wiring help for 2015 breakout please

I searched and still can't find what I'm looking for. I purchased the add on running/brake led that goes under the rear fender of my 2015 breakout https://www.getlowered.com/drag-spec...rley-breakout/ . I can't figure out how to get the brake light to work without flashing when the turn signal is on. I am currently tapping into the left turn signal wiring and get the running light to work and the brake light to work but if I turn the left blinker on, the brake light flashes as well. Where do I tap to just get the brake signal, not the turn signal? Thanks in advance.

I don’t know specifically, but why would you not use the existing tail light wiring?

because its a shared brake/turn wire. lights up when step on the brake but flashes if blinker is on. I think I found what im looking for on a thread about a slim. Says the blank 4th plug in spot is brake only. Heading to garage to try

Yeah, sorry. So the turn signal wiring harnesses that you disconnect when you remove the rear fender each have a red dummy plug on the fender side of the harness. The other side of the connector has four wires instead of the three you see on the fender side. That fourth wire, with the dummy plug on one side, is the brake only signal. All you need to do is tap into that wire or find a pin to replace the red dummy plug. I took a thin copper wire and made a pin.
